Today the statistics department remains one of the oldest and most distinguished in the country. Cox was founding editor of Biometrics, flagship journal of the International Biometric Society, first published in 1945. This distinguished position is now filled by another NC State professor, Marie Davidian. The department remains on the cutting edge, currently directing programs such as NC State's Bioinformatics Research Center.

Index Career Exhibits Special Collections Born in 1900, Gertrude Mary Cox had a luminous career as a statistician. She came to NC State in 1940 to establish the university's distinguished Department of Statistics. Cox is also well known in North Carolina for her role in starting up the Research Triangle Institute (RTI). She headed the Statistics Research Division at RTI from 1959 to 1964 and brought together statisticians from area universities. Her lifelong interest in statistics began at Iowa State University, where Cox earned a B.S. in 1929, an M.S. in 1931, and an honorary Ph.D. in 1958. She describes her start in statistics: I majored in math ... because I liked it and because I could elect all the psychology and craft courses that I needed. I was working my way through college and managed to land a job in the computing laboratory. In that manner I became interested in statistics. By the time I graduated, I was as well trained in psychology and crafts as in math but I was already in statistics. Consequently, I stayed on in that field. (News and Observer, 29 March 1959). Cox was a member of Phi Mu Epsilon at Iowa State University, 1929

Exhibition Honors Gertrude Cox Gertrude Mary Cox (1900-1978) was one of the world's leading statisticians. Her work promoted practical application of modern statistical procedures. She developed programs that provided services to agriculture, industry, and government. She helped North Carolina become a world center for advanced work in statistics. Her writings related statistics to such subjects as education, agriculture, nutrition, horticulture, and home economics. As a statistician and administrator, Cox influenced the direction of the university and the region. This spring, the special collections department of NC State's Libraries produced an exhibition to celebrate the 100th anniversary of her birth. The exhibition, which includes correspondence, photographs, diaries, and memorabilia, will run through June 30. A virtual exhibit is available at www.lib.ncsu.edu/archives/exhibits/cox. With support from the Statistics Department and the Women's Center, the NC State Libraries is developing a traveling exhibition about Cox which can tour schools. The exhibition shows not only a statistician, but also a world traveler who kept diaries filled with keen observations of women in various cultures. "She was very interested in women in careers, especially careers in science and mathematics," says Caroline Weaver, who curated the exhibition. " She was a real role model for many young women."
